In Vitro | Colestilan (MCI-196) decreases cholesterol levels by bile acid adsorption through the gastrointestinal tract[2]. Colestilan (1 g) binds 2.52 mmol of phosphate at 2–4 mM phosphate concentration and pH7.2 in vitro[2]. |
In Vivo | Colestilan (MCI-196) (0.125 or 0.5 g content per 15 g of the feed; p.o.; 14 days) decreases blood phosphate and urinary phosphorus excretion in rats[3]. Colestilan is able to improve hyperphosphataemia in rats with renal failure induced by adenine administration for 4 weeks[1]. Animal Model: 6-week old Wistar male rats[3] Dosage: 0.125 or 0.5 g content per 15 g of the feed Administration: Oral in feed, 14 days Result: Dose dependently decreased blood phosphate and urinary phosphate excretion. |
